Every moment a lifetime away sweet melody wont you take me today The thought of many, sticks to me inline with the storms sway Epiphany! I see through the devils eye The moonlights glaze rocks me to sleep I dare to doze off In hopes that dreaming can give me an explanation Provided there is a shield for those who need Where is this shield so true of worth? A shield so clear it shines like a penny Worth a penny And just a useless wherever you take it Look close to see the cracks It crumbles and erodes just like any Any in fact But this one accused to be false “Trade it in!” you say As if it’s a negotiation Bargain with me How much for a new direction? It’s been so long since I felt safe Could be a nice change Something to catch the rocks being thrown Daggers in the back twist nicely with age Reminds me that the pain is real Stiff and stubborn You see the truth The pity I have for those who don’t see Deep and murky is the pain, you are wounded now and have been for a while Forbidden Juice or Powerful Pill? Something easy and quick to numb my brain I can’t see past the shadows, nor light in the distance

Penny for your Thoughts
Every moment a lifetime away sweet melody wont you take me today The thought of many, sticks to me inline with the storms sway Epiphany! I see through the devils eye The moonlights glaze rocks me to sleep I dare to doze off In hopes that dreaming can give me an explanation Provided there is a shield for those who need Where is this shield so true of worth? A shield so clear it shines like a penny Worth a penny And just a useless wherever you take it Look close to see the cracks It crumbles and erodes just like any Any in fact But this one accused to be false “Trade it in!” you say As if it’s a negotiation Bargain with me How much for a new direction? It’s been so long since I felt safe Could be a nice change Something to catch the rocks being thrown Daggers in the back twist nicely with age Reminds me that the pain is real Stiff and stubborn You see the truth The pity I have for those who don’t see Deep and murky is the pain, you are wounded now and have been for a while Forbidden Juice or Powerful Pill? Something easy and quick to numb my brain I can’t see past the shadows, nor light in the distance
